Turkish Steak Sandwich

Greetings!

I found this Steak Sandwich recipe in one of my BBQ books, but I did not have the time to upload it to my site. So, I've included it here.

Each Sandwich has 12 g of fat, and 2131 KJ (so, that would make it 8.5 WW pts). Compared to a footlong Club Subway (one of my favourite healthy junk meals), this sandwich is light. This is a great low fat lunch recipe to have at home.

Ingredients:

4 small (250 g) beef steaks (minute steaks)
2 Red Onions
3 fresh tomatoes (as opposed to "canned")
A large loaf of Turkish bread
8 cos lettuce leaves
1 Lebanese cucumber

For the Coriander Hummus, you'll need:

1/2 cup hummus (pre-packaged)
1/4 cup low fat buttermilk
1 Tbsp chopped fresh coriander leaves

This is what you do:

• Slice the tomatoes, onions and cucumber.
• Spray a nonstick frying pan with cannola oil, and heat the pan.
• Cook the steaks on both sides, turning them only once on each side (if you turn it more than once, your steaks will go very dry, and you want your steaks cooked, but still juicy).
• Add the tomatoes and sliced onions to the steaks and cook till tender.
• Remove the steaks, tomatoes and onions onto a plate.
• Cut the Turkish bread in 4 pieces, and split each piece in half.
• Spray the pan again, and lightly "barbecue" all the split sides down till brown.
• Combine the hummus with the chopped coriander leaves.
• Make 4 sandwiches with the meat, tomatoes and onions, and add the lettuce leaves, cucumber and coriander hummus between the pieces of bread.

Yum, yum!

Have it with a nice cup of tea.

Additional tip: If you're at home, and have an electric grill, you can press-toast your sandwich for extra pleasure. However, don't add the cucumber and lettuce till after you've toasted the bread.

Enjoy!

Yours in health,
